"The iftar packs were amazing!!!
Such high quality products packed in premium packaging.
The chicken tagine was absolutely delicious, soft and succulent. Really enjoyed the watermelon drink and kids loved the fruit sticks! Mashallah cake was just lovely.
I honestly enjoyed every bit of it. Especially the information booklet with explanations! I’ve put it safely away! Such a well thought out iftar pack I must say۔
ماشاء اللہ وتقبل الله" - Mrs S. QariOrder your gift box now!
